%N Squares visited by a (2,5)-leaper on a spirally numbered board and moving to the lowest available unvisited square at each step.

%C Board is numbered with the square spiral:

%C 20--21--22--23--24--25

%C The sequence is finite: at step 7573, square 6759 is visited, after which there are no unvisited squares within one move.
